The dark, seedy underworld of New York City once again emerges as the cityscape is tainted by sewage, crack smoke and the trade of flesh. The streets, once bustling with life, permeate with the grotesque and filth-ridden chaos of yesteryear. Among these harsh realities, within the walls of the dimly lit alley ways, a stench reeks of bodily fluids and rat feces.
On the subway platforms, desperate souls engage in random acts of violence on one another over a few measly bucks. The East River runs a sickly green and the city's hue mirrors the shadows cast by these illicit endeavors. Amid this unsettling somber reality a soundscape to capture the horror is now realized in the form of Gravesend's second album.
The new album ‘Gowanus Death Stomp’ compounds the cruelty displayed on 2021 debut ‘Methods of Human Disposal’ into an ever more gritty and primal barrage of violence. At the crossroads of criminal depravity and urban malaise Gravesend utilize many tools of the trade. Black / Death / Grind / War Metal all meld seamlessly into a tar pit of scathing back-alley sadism and acid-tongued vocals.
Like a newly found corpse down by the docks, the smell of decomp is wafting out of every track on ‘Gowanus Death Stomp’. And as with NYC’s underground legends from Cro-Mags to Swans to Type O Negative, Gravesend embodies the pulse of the city, even as that pulse bleeds out on the concrete.

Reminds me very much of "Spirituell Bloodshed" by Triumvir Foul. The sound, the whole production. Great job!

[@MistaCreepz]

Gravesend is one of my favorite bands lately. Come to so cal god damn it

[@miked.8863]

Like a slab of concrete dropped on your head--Absolutely. Crushing.

[@autodidact9743]

This specific style / subgenre absolutely hinges on the drum production and this album fucking nailed it. Those HAMMER blasts bruh.

[@Nihilregime]

This is insane!!!! Bestial black metal !!!!

[@forresthill9678]

I can’t stop listening this

[@asherlocketz7542]

Although it is impossible for me to top the descriptor penned by the mighty 20Buckspin I admit to be utterly smitten by the gargantuan, filth encrusted ferocity of Gravesend. This album is one of the most degenerate and destructive pieces of punishing sonic warfare I have experienced this year; a veritable collision of vile Grind and venomous Bestial Black Metal that is merciless. Utterly murderous!

[@Carpenter_Corpse]

Ripper album y’all!! Realy diggin it! Definitely classic sounds done right with fierce energy to stomp posers! Great work

[@MetalStorm785]

Damn, right now it truly looks like 20buckspin just OWNS extreme metal. So much good stuff coming out from them, including Gravesend, which has since become one of my favorite bands ever. Crushing 💪.

[@randomwhitekid666]

What more could you possibly ask for? 🖤

[@matrixcmitech]

The youtube algo has been giving me some great stuff lately.. This is no exception... Hard, fast, sick and the key being replayability.. Def great tracks.. I looooove that string scratching abuse mixed in with the bestial 5 star vocals, blast beats that actually blast, and excellent spontaneous sounding transitions that hit just right on the ear drums! Great fucking mix and musical intensity. Go Hard!

[@lumbagoproductions]

Not quite as raw or crushing as their demo, but still solid.
